Lowell Bergman

*Rape in the Fields*, a June 2013 investigative documentary for PBS’s FRONTLINE program about the hidden reality of rape on the job for undocumented women in America’s farms, fields and factories, has received the [2014 Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award](http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/inside-frontline/frontline-wins-dupont-columbia-award-for-rape-in-the-fields/?utm%5Fcampaign=inside-frontline&utm%5Fsource=newsletter&elq=e0e22120132b4c468698431df962f9e0&elqCampaignId=775) for excellence in broadcast and digital news.

IowaWatch reporters Katie Kuntz and Lauren Mills assisted with some video and reporting in Iowa for the yearlong, cross-platform investigation led by noted journalist [Lowell Bergman](http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/about-us/producer-lowell-bergman/?elq=e0e22120132b4c468698431df962f9e0&elqCampaignId=775&ref=investigatemidwest.org).

The documentary was produced by three partners: Bergman’s Investigative Reporting Program at the UC Berkeley [Graduate School of Journalism](http://investigativereportingprogram.com/?elq=e0e22120132b4c468698431df962f9e0&elqCampaignId=775&ref=investigatemidwest.org), the [Center for Investigative Reporting ](http://cironline.org/?ref=investigatemidwest.org)and the television network [Univision](http://www.univision.com/?ref=investigatemidwest.org). Univision aired a Spanish-language version of the documentary after FRONTLINE’s English-language broadcast on PBS.
